PARADOX PODCAST #195 -- BESTE HIRA

Portuguese DJ and producer Lewis Fautzi has steadily risen from the quiet town of Barcelos to the forefront of the global techno scene. His trajectory has been nothing short of interstellar; launching with early releases on Portugal’s Soniculture, and quickly becoming a fixture on genre-defining labels like Soma, PoleGroup, Figure, Warm Up, and his own Faut Section.

His debut album The Gare Album, named after the Porto club that helped shape his artistic vision, was a bold opening statement: raw, precise, and deeply personal. A year later, Space Exploration pushed further; revealing his appetite for ambient experimentation. 

Across his discography and throughout his DJ sets, Fautzi blends dense atmospheres with magnetic, machine-like rhythms; building a sound that feels as mechanical as it is alive.

 A true craftsman of deep space sonics, he channels the gravity of the cosmos into #254: tense, immersive and unrelenting. This is Lewis Fautzi at full force.   

Tune in and disappear.

Vault Sessions #254 - Lewis Fautzi

The Lady Machine is back for another round of Podcast fun for Bassiani Podcast 266. Born in Rio, based in Berlin, Camila Milieme developed an ear for techno at a young age, attending Brazil’s Galaktika parties and picking up tracks from radio show Novas Tendencias before landing her first gig at the fresh age of 21, and at the famed Bunker 94 in São Paulo no less. Following studies in music production in the UK, she eventually landed in Berlin and channeled everything into a dual career as DJ/producer. Her vinyl sets were, are, contagious and brimming with rapid-fire basslines, relying heavily on the type of techno à la Detroit that has been so foundational to the genre without aging a day. These ones she’s published on Mote Evolver, half of Unterwegs with musicmate Decka and resident at free-spirited Berlin party series Pornceptual. A successful crowd-DJ alliance is no easy task, but twenty years of experience have sharpened her instinct for sound and the people she’s playing it to. Driving techno that lurches along on a razor edge, slamming rhythms that vibrate through the body, the magical and unquantifiable substance that allows the very best raves to coalesce. Whatever it is she has it in spades and this latest instalment proves it. This recent number’s a cut from her live set at Bassiani in mid April; rampant grooves and low-end layers picked, welded together and distorted by this singular Brazilian talent, and mastered by @neptunemastering. The Lady Machine’s chopped-up beats are a techno purist’s dream, this newest arrival makes it reality.

''When I first played at Pax-Romana exactly 3 years ago, I immediately felt a connection with the crew and the crowd. Plus, we share a birthday! I’m very honoured to continue our relationship with Friends of Pax.

This set is representative of what I am playing right now in the clubs: a collection of no-nonsense favourites that have been going down well for me over the past few months''.

We met Amotik when he played the closing at our 1st anniversary. Since that moment, everything felt organic and warm, just like his closing track 'Knights of the Jaguar'. We share a birthday, so our paths will be linked forever, and we're super grateful to have him in the PAX-COLLECTIVE!

Para Victoria is a self-released, 4-track EP written in the middle of life happening way too fast. Between the pressure, distance, joy, and nights out that blur into something bigger, this project came together as a reflection of it all.

It’s about growing up while still feeling like a kid, chasing connection across long distances, and holding on to fleeting moments that somehow feel eternal. It’s also about noodles, new sunglasses, loud music, and soft feelings.

Written, produced, mixed, and mastered entirely by myself, this one’s deeply personal. Maybe you’ll hear that. Maybe you’ll feel it too.

Everyone who buys the EP on Bandcamp will also get a fifth digital bonus track as a thank you.

Andy Martin is the 446th guest of our original HATE Podcast series.

The idea behind this mix is to create a journey through the different shades of techno. It also includes some of my own unreleased tracks. 

Andy Martin is a Mexican Jamaican electronic artist who mixes up sci-fi techno and Latin Caribbean sounds with a futuristic edge. His most recent album “Antiguos Astronautas” is a musical exploration between the sounds of techno and native american futurism narrative which had a good response from the music community.

SHDW is the phantom moniker of Marco Bläsi, a Stuttgart native with a penchant for racing percussions and big room sounds. 2014 saw the beginning of his long-term partnership with like-minded techno dealer Obscure Shape (Luigi Urban), with whom he co-ran the party series and label spin-off From Another Mind. Ten years later and Bläsi has set out on his own journey, building on a decade-long legacy of sounds with just himself, ‘his music, decks, and a mixer’. Following on from his previous label, he founded Mutual Rytm in 2022, an outlet and creative platform focused on putting out the type of expansive techno SHDW’s come to be known for. His signature style a blend of intelligently superimposed and shuffling basslines, blink of an eye beats that elicit movement and social bonds. Unerring prime time techno, Bläsi’s path forward is looking promising, with a surge of Mutual Rytm releases and worldwide dates, the next ten years look set to further build on what he’s achieved since he started out. Bassiani Podcast 267 is a true to type episode from this master of the genre, a sleek and contemporary spate of rumbling kicks, dizzying effects and hedonic vibrations, a chugging and groovy 65 minute edition with SHDW’s fingerprints all over it.
